Atari Blitzkrieg looks for "Satan In the Mirror" with new release on Uncommon Records

Atari Blitzkrieg consistently delivers an impressive variety of styles, including work with producers like Daedalus, Mag Owl and Krohme. His creativity is so unique, Atari's been able to collaborate on tracks with artists across the spectrum, from Vast Aire to The Game. Simply put, Atari introduces listeners to another brilliant facet of his sound with every release.

Now, for Uncommon Records, Atari embarks on a journey of exploring the aspects of evil in a way not seen in hip hop since the Gravediggaz. Atari takes us down this path with Satan in the Mirror. This EP sees him channeling the dead and the harmed through the vessels of tele-preachers. As guitars wail through the night, air thick with drama and tension, Atari gives us a look at evil in ways we might wish we never saw.
Satan in the Mirror features production from Atari himself, Krohme, Nasa and Black-Tokyo. This journey will eventually lead to the long-awaited LP, Technicolor Crime Scenes this Fall.

Duke01 has released, Steroid Stereo today from Team Chameleon.  The project was entirely produced by Nasa, aside from the intro provided by DJ Johnny Crump.  It features 5 bangers from Nasa including a 7 minute posse cut opus featuring Duke01, Dwyzak, Masai Bey, Passive65ive, Atari Blitzkrieg and Adam Warlock!  It can be picked up digitally or on CD, the CD includes all the instrumentals from Nasa.  As Nasa tells it, "The work I put into these 5 tracks felt like 15.  I added many details to all the beats throughout the process and really worked hard on it.  Duke01 gave me the creative freedom I needed and we came up with an exciting project built from mutual respect".  You can pick up the album (or CD with instrumentals) at Bandcamp or Itunes.
